Looking forward to your next blog – hope the footie lives up to expectations. Love from Mum xxxxxxxxx

Dom, Just finished my own round-the-world trip and thought I’d give my humble diving input:
(Didn’t go to S America so can’t say)
Fiji – cheap as chips and if you get away from the main islands, the sites are amazing – reef is very unspoilt. The standard of kit is a bit touch and go. At one place, my kit was state of the art, at another my regulator had a permanent leak.
NZ – by far the best diving I did. The Poor Knights (we went from Dive Tutukaka, which was brilliant) was the best single dive I’d ever done (Blue Mao Mao Cave and Mediation Wall), the Rainbow Warrior was pretty interesting and the Mikhail Lermontov (Russian cruise liner) at the top of the South Island was my single biggest regret at not having done.
Thailand – quite good dive sites and good chances of diving with Whale Sharks but very touristy.
Hope you’re having and continue to have a great trip.
Cheers,
Morten
